Since Saturday, February 20, mega freight ferry HUMBRIA SEAWAYS replaces BEGONIA SEAWAYS on Göteborg – Gent.
According to route operations manager Alain De Brauwer, this means 320 more trailers per week in each direction.
The route is now operated by HUMBRIA, FREESIA and PRIMULA SEAWAYS, with six calls per week in total.
DFDS also operates sister vessel FLANDRIA SEAWAYS on Göteborg – Zeebrugge, in cooperation with CLdN. The two companies have a space share agreement.
FLANDRIA SEAWAYS meets HUMBRIA SEAWAYS in Zeebrugge
On Sunday October 4, Port of Zeebrugge welcomed DFDS newest ship FLANDRIA SEAWAYS on her maiden trip in the service Zeebrugge – Göteborg.
The ship arrived at the PSA-terminal in Zeebrugge at the Wielingendok. This dock has recently been modified to be able to accommodate ships of this size. The jetty has been lengthened by 40m, and extra mooring arrangements have been provided.
The same day, HUMBRIA SEAWAYS arrived as well, making it a unique get together.
HUMBRIA SEAWAYS is now back on Vlaardingen – Immingham.
The new ship was shown (coronaproof) to the new CEO of Port of Zeebrugge, Tom Hautekiet. He was accompanied by Alain De Brauwer (DFDS), Theo Milliau (PSA), Harbour master Joris Praet and the ship’s agent.
